What precautions apply to Brimonidine Tartrate?

When using Brimonidine Tartrate, it is important to follow the prescribed dosage and administration instructions. Avoid touching the tip of the dropper to prevent contamination. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before putting them back in.

What does Brimonidine Tartrate interact with?

Brimonidine Tartrate may interact with other medications, including other eye drops or oral medications.
